Great sushi, NOT a fusion restaurant – The sushi here is awesome and always fresh. Sashimi is great also. One of Houston's gems that can truly hang with San Francisco, New York or Las Vegas standards. The hot plates are tasty as well, but honestly I come here for the sushi. Having spent extensive time in San Francisco and indulging in many fusion restaurants, Blue Fish is NOT at all a fusion restaurant. The service here can be spotty, so order lots at once or don't be afraid to get their attention. This is in my top 5 sushi ... read more

Good Fusion/Veggie Dishes, NOT Sushi – Pretty cozy place. I like the dishes there that I'll refer to as "fusion". Basically stir fries with various curry sauces, that kind of thing. These dishes are very good, and have some excellent vegetarian options that I enjoy even though I am an omnivore. I find these dishes are cooked properly with good ingredients, and are very well flavoured. As for the sushi... average. I wouldn't recommend this place if you're looking for sushi. The service could be better... I think they have tro... read more

A good place that's getting crowded. – Is it good? I go at least once every two weeks or so. That's as good of testimony as I can provide. Do I have an imaculate palatte? Who's to say, but everyone I've taken there has enjoyed it as well. Honestly, I'd rather write a bad review so less people would go; it's starting to get crowded. No, they don't take reservations, but they really can't: the place is small. Small restaurants can't risk trying to accommodate an 18-top table on its busiest night for fear the party may not hono... read more

Try the soup – This place is a cute litttle sushi spot!! I reccomend going when it is not busy...the staff looks annoyed for everything that you ask them. I had to ask for a water refill 3 times!! They do however have excellent sushi pieces and large rolls!! :) Price is just right!~ If you like spicy food I suggest you try the Spicy Shrimp and Chile Soup! It is DELICIOUS!!

How to lose eighteen customers in 60 seconds – I've gone to Blue Fish many times and have enjoyed the food. On a few occasions, I've gone with a rather large group and made reservations in advance. So I was stunned today when I called to make reservations. Here's the gist of the conversation: Them: "Blue Fish fish house, may I help you?" Me: "Yes, I need to make reservations for this evening, please." Them: "For how many?" Me: "Eighteen." Them: "Oh, we can't seat that many on Friday night." Me: "Er, you have before. We've ha... read more

Poor service – Today my friend and I arrived at BFH @ 2:40pm and were told that the restaurant was closed. The reason we were given was that the restaurant always closes its doors 15 minutes early. I had visited their Website and City Search to confirm that BFH would be open prior to leaving work and driving to the restaurant only to be told that BFH always closes its doors early. I have a suggestion. BFH should update their WebSite to reflect their hours. It will require little effort on their part, and save customers such ... read more

The Best Veggie Tempura Roll – I love Blue Fish b/c they have the best Veggie Tempura rolls in Houston and the prices are right. In general, I really like the food and the restaurant as a whole. The service is average - sometimes great, sometimes bad (in a non-existant way, not a rude way). My only real complaint is the music. The ambience is otherwise amazing - small, muted lighting, romantic, etc. etc. However, the sushi chefs always seem to play the WORST cheesy asian pop at a level loud enough to hear throughout the rest... read more

Awesome sushi, awesome pricing, horrible service – Hello, Blue Fish is my fav for Happy Hour sushi. Ambiance is great, food is even greater, but the service leaves much to be desired. I've been a server for many years and now I manage, so I am a very patient and empathetic person. I wish I knew the name of the specific female server that "took care" of us twice and gave us horrible service. I want to keep frequenting this quaint place, I'll just request somebody else.

What is the hype?????? – My wife and I recently went to Bluefish for the first time and I must say what I heard about the sushi was far different then what I experienced when I was eating it. I thought the sushi was not good at all maybe because it was made a different way. The ambience however was very nice and when you drive up into the parking lot it doesn't even look like a Japanese restaurant. This place is good if you want other types of food besides sushi. I wouldn't recommend this place solely on the sushi. Sorry.
